This is what Cleopatra looked like. This is one of the depictions of Cleopatra VII Philopator. You can find the other representations attributed to Cleopatra on her Wikipedia page. It's not that complicated. 🤷‍♀️

The Greco-Roman civilization was the source of inspiration for most of the works of John William Godward, a neoclassical English painter.

I have always loved this sculpture. It represents Janus, Roman god of gates, doorways, beginnings, and endings, and Bellona, Roman goddess of war. It was made by Johann Wilhelm Beyer, 1773-80 CE, and you can find it in the Schönbrunn Garden, Vienna.
